Hello ansgrecho, thanks for writing in.

Any external application outside of NinjaTrader goes out of the scope of support we could provide. Use the StreamWriter class to open the file, then make sure to call StreamWriter.Close() when the file writing is done. If the application outside of NinjaTrader can not access the file, it needs special exception handling that will wait until the file is available to be opened. We do not reccomend using Thread.Sleep within the NinjaScript as this can cause stability issues in the NinjaTrader system as a whole. An async Task is not supported in NinjaTrader 7 as it requires .Net 4 and NinjaTrader 7 uses .Net 3.5

There is an example of using the Streamwriter here:

Kind regards,

Hi Chris.
This example don't resolve my problem.
can I create new threads in the editor window? if so, what control words(sleep,wait,notify,yield) does the ninjatrader support? cause i can to get a full control on writer only from my thread, but not base thread.
i need to get data in my application from a blocked file. but i don't achive it. does NT_8 support .Net 4.5?
in this article from your site to wrote "Due to the asynchronous nature of this indicator" TIPS. and why is here async to use and i can't to use async in nt_7 https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...o_write_to.htm , https://gyazo.com/35a26ed37ac852af7c2d05f897e23346?

Hello ansgrecho, thanks for your reply.

The file is being blocked because it is open, not because it's running on the UI thread of NinjaTrader. In the NinjaTrader 8 example, the stream writer is closed at the end of the writing procedure. This should be sufficient to allow another program to access the file. This should be tested thoroughly.

Please let me know if I can assist any further.
